A shimmering thread in a wide array of colors, Madeira Metallic No. 10 is a very versatile size and weight. Use it for embroidery, bobbinwork, serging, knitting, tatting, crocheting, braidmaking, or as a gimp for lacemaking. It’s also wonderful for friendship braclets, earrings and other jewelry items. 40% polyamide/60% metallic polyester.

To make metallic thread you must wrap a super thin strip of foil around a center thread and then bond them together. With the help of precision German engineering, Madeira has perfected this process and you can see the result in the uncommon sturdiness and flexibility of all Madeira Metallics.

All twenty colors come in Madeira’s unique Spiral Pak. With old-fashioned skeined floss, you start wasting floss from the moment you pull out your first strand. Once the paper band is off, old-fashioned floss soon becomes a tangled mess. Then, while you’re separating your strands, you can’t tell which way the grain of your floss is going. So, you often thread it the wrong direction. You end up pulling out stitches and ruining floss. With the Madeira Spiral Pak, you always pull your floss out the right way, thread it correctly, and stitch the right way every time you pick up your embroidery project. Plus, the Spiral Pak keeps your flow clean, new and tangle-free until you use it – even in the bottom of your sewing basket!
